A trip woven with stories. The energy of the city is unmatched -history humming through its streets,people with stories as layered as the city itself. It is a reminder that words connect us, but so do cities. In Dillwalon ki Dilli with my daughter Samina ❤️.

A Moment of Deep Gratitude It was an immense honor to meet Jagadguru Sri Shivarathri Deshikendra Mahaswamiji at Suttur, Karnataka. His blessings and kind felicitation - recognizing my humble contribution to Kannada literature on the global stage have left me deeply humbled.

Big thanks to the Mysore Press Club for the space, the questions, the curiosity — and mostly, for listening. It’s not every day you get to sit down with people who shape how stories travel. Grateful for the conversations that matter. 🙏
